Default Lightning rod
Lightning rod, The question is if lightning rods attract lightning then why would you want to put them on your house. Would you walk around the golf course in a lightning storm with a steel shaft a golf club in the air. You’re asking lightning to hit the steel shaft and kill you. So if you have lightning rods on your house are you asking lightning to hit your house?
